On the one hand, we want artists to hold their fingers on the pulse of society and to be critical about society but on the other hand, the art sector itself does not necessarily put into practise what it criticizes in the overall society.\u201d<\/p><cite>Gitte Zschoch, Secretary General of ifa, the \u201cInstitut f\u00fcr Auslandsbeziehungen\u201d<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The pandemic has exacerbated exploitative working conditions in the arts and culture sector. Gitte Zschoch lets us share her experiences of working with artists in Germany, Europe and around the world and explains what changes she would hope to see in this field \u2013 especially when it comes to funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lack of recognition of cultural work<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cThe reputation of arts in general in our society is pretty poor. That barrier between understanding what the arts do and what is important in society at large also makes it harder for people to get their value in dollars to produce what they want to produce.\u201d<\/p><cite>Anastasia Lemberg-Lvova, artist and founder of the project De Structura<br><br><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>For many artists, especially young ones, much of their time revolves around the issue of funding and they feel restricted in their artistic work. Apart from the subtle differences in the application procedures of different funding institutions, there are many things that can make funding procedures difficult to navigate. One of them is that the success of an application often depends on who is evaluating your work and whether you have worked with that particular person before. It is a tedious process that eats up resources, time and work that is unpaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anastasia describes how she once had to pay around 5,000 euros out of her own pocket, which she had scraped together by&nbsp;working several jobs at the same time, to realise one of her projects. It is therefore fair to say that funding is comparably easy if one is a well-known established artist, whereas it is very difficult for new and emerging artists that aspire to create something ambitious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Gitte voices hope. She is observing how new projects set up to fund arts and culture are meeting higher standards. Funding structures and application criteria are becoming more transparent and aspire to be more fair, taking into account participation, equality and diversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A digital platform to support artists and civil society actors in Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem of the lack of funding and economic opportunities to realise projects in the arts and culture sector is apparent. Through a series of workshops in the course of the project&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.progressives-zentrum.org\/project\/europe-takes-part\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Europe takes part!<\/a>&nbsp;artists from all over Europe developed digital tools to support cultural workers in their daily work. The final product of these workshops, a new Funding Module, has now been integrated into the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.europeanhub.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">European Hub for Civic Engagement<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Funding Module gives all Hub users access to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>a&nbsp;<strong>message board<\/strong>&nbsp;for networking within the community to get inspiration, find project partners or peer support.<\/li><li>a&nbsp;customizable&nbsp;<strong>funding search&nbsp;<\/strong>that gives an overview of different financing opportunities.<\/li><li>a&nbsp;<strong>funding checklist<\/strong>&nbsp;that provides feedback on project proposals and guides through the key issues that may come up in an application process.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On our two guests<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.progressives-zentrum.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/Anastasia-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44727\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lemberglvova.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Anastasia Lemberg-Lvova<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;is an artist and founder of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/destructura.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">De Structura<\/a>.
